Air Sealing Before Insulating: Maximize Energy Efficiency & Comfort
According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE),
“Before you insulate, you must control air leakage.”
Air sealing is a critical first step before attic insulation. By sealing leaks in your ductwork, can light cracks etc, and building envelope, you reduce energy waste, improve HVAC performance, and create a more comfortable, efficient home.
Why Air Sealing Matters
Proper air sealing can reduce annual energy costs by up to 20%, depending on your home’s insulation, size, climate, and lifestyle. Unsealed leaks force your HVAC system to work harder, increasing energy bills and reducing system lifespan.
